Jeremiah23:33

Ver. 33. What is the burthen of the Lord?] Ironicum interrogandi genus; thus they profanely asked by way of ſcoff or deſpite, ſuch as he will drive down their throats again, plaguing them for their profane malignity.

Then ſhalt thou ſay What burthen?] q d. I'le burden you to ſome purpoſe, ſith ye profanely count and call my Word a burthen; you ſhall ſuddenly have your back-burthen of plagues and miſeries, for the contempt of it.

I will even forſake you] And then Woe be unto you, Hoſ. 9.12. you ſhall be eaſed of theſe burthens and of me together: and that you'l find miſery enough. See chap. 12.7. Learn therefore to ſpeak holily and honourably of Gods Word: left thou hear this Word of his Thou ſhalt never enter into my reſt.
